IT KEEPS FIRST THINGS FIRST

The Bible says giving is to be a “first” and not a last or leftover matter in our lives. Read Proverbs 3:9-10. It is easy to let our intentions be compromised by the pressure of expenses and billing cycles.

IT’S CONSISTENT

Have you ever forgotten your gift, left it at home, or pledged to double it in the future? Have you had times where you have fallen behind because you travel or other schedule interruptions? Online giving provides a way to stay up to date with your budget.
